Haricot Verts Salad with Feta, Cranberries & Pistachios

I love salads that are loaded with flavor and this one made with haricot verts, Feta cheese, cranberries and pistachios is fabulous. 

What are Haricot Verts?

Haricot vert is French for ā€œgreen beansā€ and are longer and thinner than the American variety of green beans.

I like to use these instead of regular green beans on occasion; however, the American green bean would also work just as well in this recipe.

How do you make this haricot vert salad?

Start by blanching the beans first by briefly submerge them in boiling water. Then after a 2-3 minutes, plunge them into ice-cold water to halt the cooking process so that they remain a little ā€œcrispyā€ as my daughter likes to call it.

Add the haricot verts to a bowl; then add crumbled Feta cheese, dried cranberries, chopped pistachios, balsamic vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Mix well and serve chilled.

The sweetness of the cranberries and balsamic vinegar mixed with the pistachios and sharpness of the feta cheese make this a mouthwatering salad and reminds me of Fall. ~Enjoy!
